Baltimore Renters' Rise
We are not alone in our housing justice struggle. We are part of a national alliance of renters working to shift the balance of power between renters and corporate landlords to guarantee that renters are able to live with dignity. Housing can no longer be used as a wealth building toy for super rich corporate landlords, real estate developers and hedge fund managers.
Every generation is called to continue the struggle for freedom—we must answer this call, and turn back the ugly wave of hate that seeks to divide us based on race, class, gender, religion, sexual orientation, national origin and other differences. We will rise up as one people to stop the billionaires and those who stir up hate from undermining our democracy, trampling on our freedoms, and destroying our planet.
We vow to defend each other—because an attack on one of us is an attack on all of us.
We vow to fight for freedom, dignity and justice for all people.
Join us in resistance and solidarity. Join us in the streets. Join us in town halls, state capitols and community meetings. Join us in your place of worship, your neighborhood association, your school or your workplace. Join us to build power in our communities, and a multi-racial coalition strong enough to uproot white supremacy and end economic exploitation. Join us to build an America worthy of our ancestors’ sacrifice, our boldest aspirations, and our children’s great promise.
We know everyone deserves a safe, affordable place to call home. We will only be free when landlords can no longer subject us to high rents and slum conditions, when big banks and developers can no longer profit from displacing us from our homes, and when the government reinvests the resources necessary to make up for decades of cutbacks.
